xCinema Studio EX
A surround sound mode that can be regarded as the compilation of Digital Cinema Sound technology, delivers the sound of a dubbing theater using three technologies: “Virtual Multi Dimensions,” “Screen Depth Matching,” and “Cinema Studio Reverberation.” “Virtual Multi Dimensions,” the virtual speaker technology, creates a virtual multi- surround environment with actual speakers up to 7.1 channels, and brings the surround sound experience of a theater with the latest facilities into your home.
“Screen Depth Matching” reproduces treble attenuation, fullness, and depth of sound usually created in a theater using sound emission from behind the screen. This is then added to the front and center channels. “Cinema Studio Reverberation” reproduces the sound characteristics of
xComponent video
A format for transmitting video signal information consisting of three separate signals: luminance Y, chrominance Pb, and chrominance Pr. High quality pictures, such as DVD video or HDTV pictures, are transmitted more faithfully. The three jacks are color- coded green, blue, and red.
xComposite video
A standard format for transmitting video signal information. The luminance signal Y and chrominance signal C are combined and transmitted together.
xCrossover frequency
The frequency at which two speaker’s frequencies intersect.
xDeep Color
Video signals for which the color depth of signals passing through an HDMI jack have been raised.
The number of colors that could be expressed by 1 pixel was 24 bits (16,777,216 colors) with the current HDMI jack. However, the number of colors which can be expressed by 1 pixel will be 36, etc., bits when the receiver corresponds to Deep Color.
Since the gradation of the depth of a color can be expressed more finely with more bits, continuous color changes can be more smoothly expressed.
xDigital Cinema Sound (DCS)
Unique sound reproduction technology for home theater developed by Sony, in cooperation with Sony Pictures Entertainment, for enjoying the exciting and powerful sound of movie theaters at home. With this “Digital Cinema Sound” developed by integrating a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and measured data, the ideal sound field intended by filmmakers can be experienced at home.
xDigital Concert Hall
“Digital Concert Hall” delivers richer sound for 2ch stereo sources such as CDs, etc. With the use of 5.1ch or 7.1ch speakers and virtual speaker technology, stereoscopic reverberation and reflected sound are reproduced, and music software can be enjoyed with richer sound and presence. The sound field in a concert hall is recreated by a geometrical analysis of the concert hall and precise modeling of reflected and reverberant sounds based on actual measured data. Tonal qualities such as sound strength and frequency response are taken into account and calculated on the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) to bring reverberation in. Sound is enjoyed with natural and comfortable resonance, as if listening to music in a concert hall.
